i'll be pulling my 1.8 engine out in a couple weeks, or as soon as tax return is in.
the last time i pulled it was to replace my rear main seal. i heard it was a tough job and that was definitely true. i ended up removing the omega looking housing because the seal wouldn't budge. what a mistake that was!! removing it meant i needed to redo the oil pan seal. well, after dropping the engine back in, it seems as if i have an oil leak sucks, but ive heard even some shops mess up sometimes since its a job u need to do perfectly, which makes me feel better. lol. and, having an engine stand helps a grip, not just the engine hoist.

anywayz, does anyone know how to PROPERLY do the oil pan seal? or a shop that can do it for cheap? i'll do all the work, i just want anything that has to do with an oil seal done professionally.

thanks,
-Jo
